Does anybody know how I could make a MC keep moving a certain amount when I let go after dragging it. I want the distance it goes to be based upon how quick I moved the mouse before I let it go.

View 3 RepliesI have a square box, which is larger than the stage. The box can be moved around the stage, using the startDrag/stopDrag methods. The box starts a 0,0 and gets moved with the mouse...
ActionScript Code:
board.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, boardMiniMapLocation);
public function boardMiniMapLocation(e:Event){
if(board.x >= 0){
[Code]....
In the above, the first two if statements work, it is just the last one that doesn't work.
What is supposed to happen, is when the board is dragged to the left, and it hits the boards right edge is equal to the right edge of the stage, it is supposed to not allow the board to move any more to the left.
I need to add a small amount of physics to some moving elements.I found flade, but it looks like overkill for what I'm looking for. Also, all the examples are side-views with gravity.
Basicaly, I have a top-down view, and have square shapes that I want to be able to slide along a wall when they hit it at an angle. They don't even need to rotate when they make impact. I tried comming up with my own solution, based on the relative rotations and quarants they collide on, but it is very clunky. I can't help but feel there is a better way to do this. Heck, there might even be some usefull ActionScript function that I don't know about.

Every thing is working but the Thumbnails RollOver event. If I set ThumbnailRolledOver = i; to ThumbnailRolledOver = 1; then it works but I am trying to load in 11 items and need this to be "i" if its possible. Is this something that can be done? I have seen dynamic button names but not dynamic information inside a button like this.
I have been having a serious issue with custom video where flash is saying that the amount of the video so far played is MORE than the amount that it has downloaded, which is clearly impossible. This results in various problems, such as the playhead (scrubber) moving past the end of the loader bar. I posted a simple demo that displays the amount loaded and the amount played in text fields. You can see it at: [URL][Code]...
View 5 RepliesSo I have been having a serious issue with custom video where flash is saying that the amount of the video so far played is MORE than the amount that it has downloaded, which is clearly impossible. This results in various problems, such as the playhead (scrubber) moving past the end of the loader bar.I posted a simple demo that displays the amount loaded and the amount played in text fields. You can see it at: URL...[code]I encoded the video at a high rate so that it would download slowly. It may not playback smoothly, which I am not concerned about. What I am concerned about is the numbers below the video what are derived from ns.bytesLoaded and ns.time. If you watch it for a bit, the amount played should exceed the amount loaded.
I double checked the video duration and the bytestotal that flash is reporting and they are correct. I don't know of any way to check the accuracy of bytesloaded.If your internet connection is super fast, you may not see the issue - it only occurs when it is playing back faster than it is downloading - if this is the case, you may need to throttle your speed down, or start downloading a large file while you are watching this demo in order to see the issue.But this is a serious issue and means that building custom video interfaces with loadbars and playheads is impossible!

The situation is this: Im trying to make a pre-loader that displays the load amount in text as a % and has a loading bar that will only load when the movie loads. When the movie is fully loaded the loading bar fill be full and it will display 100%, when the movie is half full it will be 50% and the bar will only be half way across. If I wanted to make the loading bar a specific width how would I do it?? At the moment the bar only seams to want to be 100 wide. The script im using so far is:

other pages and stops on the home page.
I want to be able to display a paragraph where if the text being shown is (say) over 15 lines long, then a link text will appear and if click it will expand.
Example:
This is a long line for here so I need to make more display but I cant so what will (More)... <== this more link will be clicked and the rest will show up below this paragraph expanded to show the rest of it. (Close)... <== this close link will be clicked and the rest of the page will be hidden again.
Can this be done in Flex? Here is a link example done in javascript [URL].

I want to make the list infinitely moveable/draggable on its y position, meaning the user can drag this list up and down but the list never ends.....In other words when the user drags to the last item in the list, the list, the list starts over again. And the same works in the reverse; if the user is dragging up and gets to the first item, the last item pops up after and then goes in reverse. In other words no ending. Think The Price Is Right Wheel or the alram clock on the iPhone or iPod touch.
I have made a simple Drag and Drop map, where its the map being dragged by the mouse. The thing is, i need to have a grid of buttons on this map, which you can click. But since im dragging the actual map, my buttons wont follow. They stay where they are.An example would be the united states world map, then each state is a button i can click. A problem would be that if the entire map is covered in buttons, then my mouse cant drag the background map as im selecting a button when i drag. perhaps i can make the buttons drag the map instead?This is the code for dragging the map:
Code:
Map.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, grabMe);
Map.buttonMode = true;[code]..........

View 4 RepliesCurrently I'm trying to make a basic game (using AS 2) but I'm having trouble getting the basic physics to behave. I have a ball which is supposed to fall until it touches the ground. It can also be dragged around the screen by the cursor.I want the ball to fall only if it isn't being held, but for some reason the condition isn't working properly. No matter how I structure the condition, the ball still falls even when it's being held (in fact I can move it from side to side, it is still being held even though it's falling downward).I've tried putting this on the ball to make it fall conditionally:
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(hitTest(_root.ground1) == false){

View 3 RepliesI new to Flash and Action Script 3.0. I've just designed my first Flash website (for a band), and one of the pages has an MP3 player on the audio page. It plays fine, as long as you're on that page. But the problem is, when you go to a different page in the website, it keeps playing, and then when you return to the audio page, a new instance of the song that's playing starts playing on top of the song that's already playing. It's a jumble of sound that can't be stopped unless you close out of the website.[code]...
